The Den

"Must go to if you visit Denver. Might be the best sushi I’ve ever had. Flown direct from Japan. You should try and sit at the bar and watch the chefs work their magic. Check photo for all my recommendations"

"Welp, we’ve just elevated in society! First time at a Michelin star restaurant and… just WOW. The customer service is what sets this place apart from the others. We felt very special by the constant warm smiles and the keen attention the servers gave throughout the entire experience. We felt like celebrities."

"Absolutely 5 star in every way. My husband and I were celebrating our ten year anniversary and upon entering the host greeted us by my name (I still don’t know how he knew it) and told us happy anniversary. We got celebratory champagne and entered into the beautiful room. The chef is incredible and so kind. He explained every dish to us and told us how to eat each dish which I appreciated. We were served 21 dishes, all exquisite. Our favorites were the medium fat tuna and the warm dishes, but there was not one single thing that was below 5 star. My husband loved his sake tasting and I got the Koi, which was delicious. At one point I got a stain on my menu and within 20 seconds I had a new one. The whole team is great and everyone seems to love what they’re doing. Cannot recommend this experience enough!"

"Amazing experience! One of the best Omakase dinner I had so far. The foods are amazing and enjoyable. The quality are fresh and with exceptional high standard. Cannot wait to go back again."

"We picked The Den to celebrate our anniversary and we had at amazing time at Azabu (they have an omakase spot inside the restaurant). Head Chef Atsushi Okawara served us for the night. All of the ingredients were extremely fresh. According to the chef, all the fish were shipped directly from Japan. Everything was delicious from start to end and here are some of our favourites: 1. Uni, sea urchin - sweet and creaming, a delicacy that melts in your mouth. 2. AYU, sweetfish - the skin is blow torched to enrich the oil from the fish, fish skin is crispy, strong flavours and texture. 3. Cutlassfish tempura - sooo delicious. Imagine a CRISPY MELTED marshmallow, that is the best description I could think of when describing the texture of the tempura. 4. Salmon - I am not a big fan of salmon at omakase because of how common it is at Japanese restaurants. However, their salmon is smoked with pine straw, it added an extra layer of flavour profile to the sushi. Very unique! 5. Tuna Tasting - no words, especially the o-toro, it was just foodgasm We think that The Den did an excellent job at bringing out the flavours of the fish by pairing them with different sauces and garnishes. Althought the price is on the higher end, I would say it is definitely worth the experience. If we ever visit Miami again in the future, we will be back for sure! *Special thanks to our server for the hospitality! You definitely made our night better! **Didn’t capture everything with my phone but here are some pictures!"
